Pitch near Nuremberg: peace & quiet & close to the city

Welcome to our fruit orchard!

Enjoy the tranquility of a fruit tree meadow on the outskirts of town. Surrounded by fields, a small wood, and rural scenery, the site offers plenty of nature as well as numerous opportunities for walking and biking. There’s plenty of space here to relax, play, and—for dogs—run around freely.

The approximately 1,000 m² property is fenced in and accessible via a small dirt road. It borders our property on one side—there are no immediate neighbors.

The campsite is typically reserved for only one guest at a time. This usually allows dogs to roam freely on the property. If this isn’t possible, we’ll let you know in advance.

Electricity and water are available

Please note:

We try to keep the campsite open as long as possible in the fall. Once the ground becomes soft, we’ll have to close it.

For owners of electric heaters: Due to the power lines, we can only supply 1 kW during continuous operation.

Electricity: The electrical connection is intended for standard camping use (e.g., refrigerator, lighting, chargers, laptop, e-bike battery). Our wiring is not designed to power energy-intensive devices that run continuously, such as air conditioners, electric heaters, or electric vehicle chargers.

In this garden, we’re trying to let trees, shrubs, and wild herbs grow back naturally.

The city centers of Nuremberg and Fürth are about 30 minutes away by car or for active cyclists. For families and those looking for recreation, Palm Beach (about 2 km) and the Playmobil FunPark (about a 10-minute drive) are nearby.

Access is via a small dirt road. There are various parking options, including spaces for larger vehicles.

Electricity and water are available.

Electricity: The electrical hookup is intended for standard camping use (e.g., refrigerator, lighting, chargers, laptop, e-bike battery). The use of energy-intensive continuous-use appliances such as air conditioners, electric heaters, or charging electric vehicles is not permitted. Our electrical lines are not designed for this purpose. In the event of violations, we reserve the right to disconnect the power supply and to claim any additional costs incurred or damages caused by the violation.

For daily needs, there is a vending machine in town offering meat, eggs, and other regional products depending on the season. The nearest supermarket and bakery are about 2.5 km away.

During the transitional season and in winter, the ground may become soft during prolonged periods of rain. Should the campsite therefore be unusable, we will of course inform you in a timely manner.

Traveling without a car: Possible, but a bit more of an adventure. The campsite is located on the outskirts of town. The nearest bus stop, with buses running every 10 minutes toward Nuremberg and Fürth, is about 1.5 km away.
